A Statistical Learning Perspective on Semi-dual Adversarial Neural Optimal Transport Solvers

ICLR 2026poster

Neural network-based optimal transport (OT) is a recent and fruitful direction in the generative modeling community. It finds its applications in various fields such as domain translation, image super-resolution, computational biology and others. Among the existing OT approaches, of considerable int…

Robust Barycenter Estimation using Semi-Unbalanced Neural Optimal Transport

ICLR 2025poster

Aggregating data from multiple sources can be formalized as an *Optimal Transport* (OT) barycenter problem, which seeks to compute the average of probability distributions with respect to OT discrepancies. However, in real-world scenarios, the presence of outliers and noise in the data measures can…

Energy-Guided Continuous Entropic Barycenter Estimation for General Costs

NeurIPS 2024spotlight

Optimal transport (OT) barycenters are a mathematically grounded way of averaging probability distributions while capturing their geometric properties. In short, the barycenter task is to take the average of a collection of probability distributions w.r.t. given OT discrepancies. We propose a novel…

Estimating Barycenters of Distributions with Neural Optimal Transport

ICML 2024poster

Given a collection of probability measures, a practitioner sometimes needs to find an "average" distribution which adequately aggregates reference distributions. A theoretically appealing notion of such an average is the Wasserstein barycenter, which is the primal focus of our work. By building upon…

Extremal Domain Translation with Neural Optimal Transport

NeurIPS 2023poster

In many unpaired image domain translation problems, e.g., style transfer or super-resolution, it is important to keep the translated image similar to its respective input image. We propose the extremal transport (ET) which is a mathematical formalization of the theoretically best possible unpaired t…
